  • Process for improving polyamide, acrylic, aramid, cellulosic and polyester properties, and modified polymers produced thereby
    Patent number: 5855623
    Abstract: Methods are provided for treating polyester, polyamide, acrylic, aramid or cellulosic substrates to improve the uniformity of dyeing and to improve the hydrophilic, soil-release, odor-, mildew-, bacterial- and fungal- resistant properties of these substrates.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 20, 1996
    Date of Patent: January 5, 1999
    Assignee: Intera Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Larry L. English, Ted A. Mallen
  • Moisture transport cast lining material for use beneath an orthopedic cast, being in the form of a fabric and consisting essentially of synthetic hydrophobic fibers or a blend of synthetic hydrophobic fibers and a second different fiber
    Patent number: 5540964
    Abstract: A cast lining fabric is prepared from hydrophilic synthetic material. The cast lining transports moisture from the skin and environment beneath a cast to the outside environment where the moisture is removed by evaporation providing a dry atmosphere beneath the cast. The resulting dry environment reduces the ill effects of bacterial, fungal and mildew growth, reduces odor, increases dryness and comfort, and allows the wearer to bathe and swim.
